The Audio Series: Roberto Calas

Ouraudio series "The Authors Read. We Listen." was hatched in a NYC club during BEA back in 2012. This feature requires more time and patience of the author than any of the ones that have come before. And that makes it all the more sweeter when you see, or rather, hear them read excerpts from their own novels, in their own voices, the way their stories were meant to be heard.Today, Roberto Calas reads an excerpt from his novel The Scourge. Roberto Calas is an author and lover of history. This serial trilogy is about a 14th century knight fighting his way through a
demon-infested England to reunite with the woman he loves. And every bit of it
is true except for the made up parts. In addition to The Scourge series,
Roberto has written The Beast of Maug Maurai (fantasy), and Kingdom of Glass
(historical fiction in the Foreworld universe). He lives in Sandy Hook,
Connecticut with his two children, and visits the United Kingdom on a monthly
basis to be with his fiancée, Annabelle. Sometimes he fights demons to reach
her. You can learn more about Roberto on his website: robertocalas.com. He'd be most
appreciative if you liked his Facebook page, too: https://www.facebook.com/RobertoCalasAuthor. And if you feel you can only take 140 characters worth of him at a time, his
twitter handle is, @robertocalas.

Click on the soundcloud link below to experience an excerpt of The Scourge as read by Roberto Calas:

A mysterious plague descends upon 14th century England, ravaging the country and trapping the souls of the afflicted in eternal madness. The feudal hierarchy--and even the church itself-- slowly crumbles as the dead rise to feed and the living seek whatever shelter they can. The bishops of England call for calm and obedience, but one man isn’t listening.

Sir Edward of Bodiam has been separated from the woman he loves and nothing on heaven or earth can stop him from seeking her out.

Edward and two of his knights travel through the swiftly changing landscape of England, a countryside now overrun by the minions of hell. The knights encounter madness, violence, and sorrow, but Edward fights his way ever deeper into the thickening darkness of unholy terror.

Roberto Calas brings you along on a dark, historical tale full of love, death, and black humor. Follow Edward as he journeys to save his wife, his kingdom, and his very soul.*lifted from goodreads with love

Who's That Girl?

I have been buried beneath small press and self-published review copies since 2009. My passion for supporting the small press and self publishing communities has driven me out into the world wide web to demonstrate alternative ways to spread the word about amazing publishers, authors, and novels you might never had heard of.
